SCENE IN A WESTERN CoURT.
Mr.. Charles p. johnson returned this
morning from Mount Vernon, Law
renee county. Mo-. where he secured
verdict for a client tina. he regards
as one of the greatest Of his triumphs.
In February, 1886, his client, Michael
Horner, was tried. convicted Of mur-
dering Davis Boswell and sentenced
to imprisonment for ninety mine years.
On Saturday. at the end Of the second
trial, which had occupied two weeks;
he was found guilty Of manslaua ahter
in the fourth degree and fned 5000.
Said Governor johnson this morning
81 never saw such scene in a court
room in my life as followed the rendi-
tion Of the verdict Saturday. When
it was read Horner was too much api-
tated to move for a moment; then lie
jumped at least three feet high, swung
his hands in the air, and, as he came
down to the floor, yelled with all bis
might. Then he gave another leap
and another yell aud another. Men
in the crowded room answered his yell
with whoops as loud. Horners young
wife fairly threw her baby into the
first pair of arms that offered, sprAng
upon the jurors, hugged every one of
them and kissed three or four. Then
she and her husband sprang upon tbs
judge and shook his hands like pump
handles. The sheriff lost all control
of the crowd and had to let them
